U+50CA "僊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents a celestial being or immortal, specifically referring to a fairy or a spirit in Daoist mythology, often spelled as "xian." It is composed of the radical for "person" (亻) on the left and the phonetic component "xian" (仙) on the right, sharing meaning and pronunciation with the more common character 仙. Historically used in classical Chinese texts, this variant emphasizes the elevated or transcendent nature of such beings, and it appears in ancient literature describing mythical figures who have achieved spiritual immortality.
